Basic farm = takes 40 daylight hours and has 20 uses.It's a good idea to keep at least one renewable source of food in camp: farming or trapping. To get the logs you'll need an axe :Īlso, see the berries that are in my inventory? Food spoils, mine were fresh, so they've a green background, but as they decay that background will start to turn yellow, orange and then red, then it spoils. You can cook food in campfires and active fire pits, just left click them in you inventory and left click the fire, it's better to eat cooked food. *Easy to find items you can use as fuel are: petals, twigs, logs, charcoal, pine cones, cut grass. You also can also set things on fire if you want.

Torch : if you want/need to keep moving, it won't last long, it's a small source of light and it's used as a tool so you will be completely vulnerable. So, to survive the first night you'll need a controlled fire, you've 3 options for now:Ĭampfire : temporal use, burns twice as fast as fire pit, if you add too much fuel* it'll start setting in fire things around it.įire pit : it's permanent (unless you destroy it with a hammer), they're less susceptible to rain and only need fuel to light up again. She'll attack you until you die when you're in complete darkness. Why won't you survive the night, you ask? Well. You can access the map taping Tab and the pause menu with Esc.You'll not need a light source until it's blue, after that if you don't have any source of light you'll not survive the night. The clock: the yellow zone is daylight, red zone is dusk and blue complete darkness.Health and hunger are self explanatory, but sanity may need a little more explanation, I do recommend to read the wiki page.You can expand your inventory using a backpack, piggyback or a krampus sack.In Character you choose who you'll be playing with, but for now your only option is Wilson. In the World option you can change how often you want some stuff to spawn, or if you don't want them at all. If you've got the DLC then it's recommended you start without it and activate it once you've got some experience, the DLC was made to make the game even harder and I'll not cover anything about it here for now.
